Campus cafeteria food is really expensive (for me no way I’d buy a food plan). I personally have a family of 6 and we feed everyone a well balanced diet for just over $100 a week. It means cooking from scratch and taking lunches with me to school, but it is do-able. I don’t know if your sons would want to make the effort, but if finances restrict them from something more expensive they’ll do it. If the choice is cook and get to eat, or run out of food money before the end of the month, the choice is easy.
